About this listen
La conquête du Brésil par les Français est un des épisodes les plus extraordinaires et les plus méconnus de la Renaissance.
Rouge Brésil raconte l'histoire de deux enfants, Just et Colombe, embarqués de force dans cette expédition pour servir d'interprètes auprès des tribus indiennes. Tout est démesuré dans cette aventure. Le cadre : la baie sauvage de Rio, encore livrée aux jungles et aux Indiens cannibales. Les personnages - et d'abord le chevalier de Villegagnon, chef de cette expédition, nostalgique des croisades, pétri de culture antique, précurseur de Cyrano ou de d'Artagnan. Les événements : le huis clos dramatique de cette France des Tropiques est une répétition générale, avec dix ans d'avance, des guerres de religion.
Fourmillant de portraits, de paysages, d'action, Rouge Brésil, écrit dans une langue à l'ironie voltairienne, prend la forme d'un roman d'éducation et d'amour. Mais plus profondément, à travers les destins et les choix de Just et de Colombe, ce livre met en scène deux conceptions opposées de l'homme et de la nature. D'un côté, la civilisation européenne, conquérante et universelle, qui se veut libératrice et se découvre meurtrière. De l'autre, le monde indien, avec sa sensualité, son sens de l'harmonie et du sacré, le permanent appel du bonheur...

Story
À l'origine de ce livre audio, un fait historique : Louis XIV, le Roi-Soleil, est entré en relation avec le plus ténébreux, le plus mythique des grands souverains de l'Orient, le Négus. "L'Abyssin" est le roman de cette fabuleuse ambassade. Jean-Baptiste Poncet, jeune médecin des pachas du Caire, sera, par une extraordinaire réunion de circonstances, le héros de cette épopée baroque et poétique à travers les déserts d'Égypte et du Sinaï, les montagnes d'Abyssinie, de la cour du Roi des Rois à celle de Versailles et retour.

Story
Dans la chaleur d'une île grecque, un homme se cache pour échapper à ses poursuivants. Il évoque sa vie hors du commun et tente de démêler l'écheveau de son destin. Fils d'un modeste pelletier, il est devenu l'homme le plus riche de France. Il a permis à Charles VII de terminer la guerre de Cent Ans. Il a changé le regard sur l'Orient. Avec lui, l'Europe est passée du temps des croisades à celui de l'échange. Aussi familier des rois et du pape que des plus humbles maisons, il a voyagé à travers tout le monde connu.

Story
Violette Toussaint est garde-cimetière dans une petite ville de Bourgogne. Les gens de passage et les habitués viennent se réchauffer dans sa loge où rires et larmes se mélangent au café qu'elle leur offre. Son quotidien est rythmé par leurs confidences. Un jour, parce qu'un homme et une femme ont décidé de reposer ensemble dans son carré de terre, tout bascule. Des liens qui unissent vivants et morts sont exhumés, et certaines âmes que l'on croyait noires se révèlent lumineuses.

Story
When mystery author D. B. Ziegler is late delivering her book, Abi Schore steps in to help. Surely she can give her favorite author moral support over the holiday break and get the manuscript to her boss at Tea & Sympathy Publishing in time for the new year. When Abi shows up on Ms. Ziegler’s doorstep bearing holiday treats, she’s met by the author’s handsome grandson Dov, who reveals a startling plot twist. His grandmother isn’t able to finish the book and Dov promised he’d complete it so fans won’t be disappointed—a task that’s harder than he ever imagined.

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.
